Profusely illustrated in b&w. "At the center of the galaxy an Unknown Civilization is preparing for the launch of the greatest, most gorgeous, most technologically advanced spaceship ever built - the Stars hip Titanic. As the fabulous craft eases away from the construction dock, trailing shrouds of rather fetching pink taffeta, millions of onlookers gasp in awe. Picking up speed, the Titanic sways a little, wobbles a bit, veers wildly - and u n d e r g o e s SMEF (Spontaneous Massive Existence Failure). In just ten seconds, the whole stupendous enterprise is over. Well, not quite. The Starship Titanic makes one tiny unscheduled stop before heading off into hyperspace - to fetch you. An d if y ou w an t to get home, you're going to need (this book). It's the most comprehensively, exhaustively, completely and utterly official guide available..."

B&w illustrations. ISBN 0708844383 "On 6 March 1936 was born one of the most famous and best-loved aeroplanes the world has ever known, the Spitfire. Just four years later its courageous young RAF pilots became the heroes of the Battle of Britain as they repelled the Luftwaffe attack. When, at the heigh of the conflict, supplies of metal for new Spitfires ran short, thousands of people donated old pots and pans for the sake of the gallant fighter. Today the Spitfire is still remembered with affection by all who flew in her. This tribute brings together a fascianting collection of writings by men who flew or admired her, from the top Allied flying ace of the Second World War, Air Vice Marshal 'Johnnie' Johnson, to his German counterpart, General Major Adolf Galland, and from such illustrious names as H.E. Bates, Richard Hillary, Lord Beaverbrook and Richard Dimbleby. As well as thrilling accounts of aerial combat the book includes a Battle o f B r itain chronology, a list of the twenty Spitfire squadrons and their bases, the plane's specifications, the story of its creation and a list of museums where Spitfires can now be seen."
